YORUBA SHANGO DANCE WAND 14

This Shango dance wand has been vetted as authentic but with few signs of use or age. Note the damage on one tip of the axe.

In special festivals and processions, followers of Shango,
the Yoruba god of thunder, carry dance wands, oshe shango, depicting a female devotee with Shango's symbol, the double-headed
axe. Shango is thought to control the great powers of nature as one of the orisha,or gods.
